A froggy success story
July 7, 2009
I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this year’s tadpoles before on my blog, so I’m going to give you the smallest amount of backstory, just in case.
So I got some tadpoles from one of the nice ladies at work who found some froggy eggs in her pool. I got a bunch of them, but sadly only three hatched. Three or not though, I took care of them, and recently they became itty bitty little froggies.
The first to lose his tail is one that my nephew, Levi, named Leaflin, and then the other two lost their tails right on top of each other, earning the names from me of Thing 1 and Thing 2.
Today, I let my dear little froggies go, but before doing so I took some pictures to remember them by, which I will now attach to this post.
Thing 1
Thing 2
Leaflin (who is my favorite and consequently gets two pictures on here)
(please ignore the fact that I have chubby little kid hands, at the age of seventeen).
So here’s to Leaflin, Thing 1 and Thing 2! May they live long, and prosper.
Such cute little froggies!! :) This means that I should write a new blog post today too – but it’s not going to happen… maybe tomorrow… :)
hugs!!!
I took the pics of Leaflin!!!!!
Congratulations on the frogs. It’s been exciting seeing them hatch and become frogs without dying. Hopefully we can do it again next year.
Yes, hopefully we can! I don’t think mom will approve of me setting out a big pool of water in hopes that some froggies will lay their eggs in it though. I suspect the conversation would have something to do with hordes of mosquitos…
